Correct, an orbit is a lot harder than just achieving an altitude.
I do however, disagree with you about the conclusion you are trying to prove with your analogy.
If you have never built any sort of a vehicle before, evolving from the toy stage through many many many steps to a formula 1 car may actually be a logical process, and therefore is relevant.
Likewise, a progression from earthbound to an orbiting space station and beyond, may include a developmental step of placing a monkey in a missile.
IANAL Canada indeed has a couple laws that would be relevant
Most relevant, The Criminal Code section 342 "Unauthorized use of Computer" http://www.efc.ca/pages/law/cc/cc.342.1.html. This criminal code section is subject to colour of right, meaning if you have permission from the system owner to perform testing, this section and owning the tools to perform this section become OK. If however you do not have permission, the investigation into this breach could expose other CCofC violations probably section 430 "Mischief", Section 351 "Possession of Break-in instruments",. as well as something from sections 354-360 which are the possessions of proceeds of crime sections.
Side note, don't break-in using any technique that involves intercepting someones communications (eavesdropping, man-in-the-middle) as that falls under privacy laws (CCofC 183-196) which are much more strict and can't be waived by the system owner, only by the sender or recipient of the communication.
IANAL, but for this case I would say the first time he found the vulnerability, there was no intent to commit the crime, he stumbled across it. The second time he was checking the other system to see if the flaw was there which seems like an unauthorized use of computer system. If he had asked the system owner (or manufacturer I suppose) if he could perform tests to ensure the flaw in the system would not be made worse by his code or his system would not be affected by the flaw, he would have been on better legal footing.
and once more IANAL

You would have just thrown the Cannon copier into a Star Trek Logic Bomb death spiral. Your post talks about reproduction and RPGs. Does not compute....
Plasco has had a Plasma gasification pilot that has been running for a while here in Ottawa. I seem to recall over the summer news was that it produced less energy than hoped, but was still self supporting.
I have long felt that in countries that provide monetary support, such as Canada where I live, there is an easier solution.
Make Athletes sign a code of ethics that lays out conditions of employment (essentially). Among those may be performance metrics and other stuff, but make a clause that says their funding is based on meeting a standard with regard to performance enhancing substances. Either make it a pee in a bottle for your cheque system, or regular payments and regular tests and should you fail a test, you owe back money to the last "clean" test. I would also propose an extremely limited number of allowed "enhanced" test through the course of their career . My preference would be for 0 "failed" tests, but I believe there are some legitimate reasons for fails, and as such maybe 1 or 2 failed tests" may be OK, I am not a bio-chemist, so I'll leave that argument to the experts.
If you make it so there is a clear path of "clean" defined for the athletes, there is no excuse for pleading ignorant.
So how do you say in Chinese:
I'm sorry I moderated you -1 overated, I meant +1 funny, but my chubby fingers had a mouseing accident.
Would somneone make sure jolly reapers Karma and mine both get the appropriate adjustment.
I did a quick scan of his paper (http://jpap.andriopo.ulos.org/papers/icc-2006-dsl.pdf as posted by others). This is not my area of speciality by any means, and I would like to hear from someone more knowledgable.
My thoughts were that it sounded a lot like some of the papers in the mid 90s about how Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) would solve backbone issues, for instance timing of responses and bundling of packets into dedicated direction channels. I would be interested to see if and where this theory will be used. Will it be used to connect backbone to workstation?
I would venture that most cars are designed to fly/drive at 0 ft AGL (Above Ground Level). On the few occasions I have strayed from this altitude, either I, my passegngers or my cars suspension have been sorry.
For the record I've done -1 ft AGL more often than +1 ft AGL. And for all you neigh sayers, I welcome you to help winch/shovel my car out of the next mud puddle I get stuck in.
While reading this I had a couple questions pop into mind.
Hypothetically this case moves forward, and at the end of it, the two patent holders receive a favorable judgement (at least for them). Would the tarrif act also ban the use of the deivices allready imported? If so better make sure the Judge hit print on the notes before he reached the decission, cause chances are his computer has one of these offending drives. It would make for an intersting catch-22;I reached a decission, which was promptly lost. Wouldn't it also be ironic if either the patent office or the Reibers used said offending drives to store their patent claims.
These are pre-second coffee thoughts don't hold me liable.
Dave's insanity sauce... ahh the memmories. I used to use that as a base for the sauce I would when I fried up sausages in university. Me and one of my housemates Dave (No relation to the sauce) loved it. Everyone else in the house couldn't beleive we ate it.

Will they filter out adult web content?
Or will you be able to have "A coke and a smile." ;)
You know I think they have a point....
So when someone says it would cost an arm and a leg, we now know that is $200.
Thanks for the info!
On a more serious note, anybody have an update on

Did this project take off?
Read the comments on CNN. Most of the best one-liners from "Airplane" are there.
Nice for a morning laugh

Running an anti-virus does not provide 100% protection, it does however provide infinite times as much protection as not running one.
I wonder what the impact on ride quality would be when you pick up a large piece of metallic debris, like say an exhaust system that rusted off.
This wouldn't happen often, but would be interesting when it did.

According to the Jargon file 37 is the most random number.

Yup, if you dont want people to know the information, dont post it publicly. Seems simple enough to me.
So if I don't want to get stalked I... shouldn't go outside?
Or connect to networks. But wait, aren't networks Cisco's business? Perhaps they are just after the exhibitionist market.
Step aside, or I'll have to use my telepathetic powers.

I have done a little research on the effects a hot girl's boobs have and indeed for most males there are some outwardly observable signs.
Upon closer examination a typo was found in proposition 8 that limits marriage to being between one man and one wolfman.

When reading through this I kept flashing back to Alex being subject to the Ludovico technique of aversion therapy.
